thank you, president obama. president obama did all this and much, much more in spite of a republican party that said it's number one goal wasn't to solve any of these problems. they said the number one goal was to stop barack obama. think about this, ladies and gentlemen, in the middle of one of greatest crisis in american history they sat on their hands and play politics. look, i was raised a republican, but i don't recognize a once proud party hijacked by extremists who driven it off the flat ernl they pretend we're living on. they spent eight years creating a colossal mess, and the last four doing almost nothing except, of course, trying to blame it on president obama. hey, pyromantic -- pyromaniacs shouldn't blame the firefighters. now mitt romney wants to go back to the bad old days that got us into this mess. he would give up everything that creates opportunity for the middle class just to pay for the massive tax breaks for those who are already very, very comfortable. romney's message is clear: in tough

obama has his. more subsidies and regulation, tax breaks for the middle class, more taxes for the rich, but both of them act as if you can act autonomously in the world, as if this can be done in the absence of an interdependent fiscal policy, and this is a blunt reality. it is not an ideology. it does not serve the democrats or the republicans. the economy is interdependent, and we need policies like that. we do not have them. tavis: it is understandable, given the condition of our economy, that oester be -- both of these conventions in the last two eggs have focused on the issue of joblessness in this country, how to put americans back to work, but i wondered, to what extent you think it is possible, that some catastrophe on the international stage might end up over these next few weeks between labor day and election day, how they might end up impacting the outcome of this race. everybody is on edge. talking about living in an interdependent world, is it foreseeable that something on the internati

the michelle obama was excellent. i think if you take the two conventions, you look at a party, you have doubts about the republicans now. and the republican convention looks worse in retrospect because i'd say that because they did not champion and make a case for all the policies that have been seriously attacked here. given a week i would give a slight advantage to the democrats. >> mark. >> the democrats won desitessively the first two nights and the third night as well. disaifd's right the republicans are going to pay a price for a content-free convention. basically a content-free. this was not content-free. >> ifill: back to washington richard norton smith, without it falling on how, how did it look. >> a confetti free assessment. i would agree with david. i don't think we saw anything new or revealing about the president tonight but what we did see revealed tonight was the democratic strategy. up until now the assumption has been that this is an election, a referendum upon the performance of the incumbent presi

obama spoke elkently about it. if there's a greater responsibility we have, to bring solvency again to this government and this nation, i don't know what it is. >> ifill: by the way, the president we're told was watching this speech tonight at the white house with the daughters. no dramatic reveal at the end. now to ray suarez on the floor where all that red meat landed. >> you know, gwen, they gaveled this thing open in a half empty hall. by the time the first lady walked on to the stage, there wasn't room for another body in this arena but there was one funny moment before the speech began. the marshals moved throughout the aisles handing out "we love michelle" signs when the house lights were down and they were showing the biographical video. and as it moved to its finale, the assumption was that the next person out on the stage was going to be the first lady herself. so when the final frame faded to black, a woman walked out on stage, thousands of people leapt to their feet, and inhaled as it to begin shouting,

that's exactly the obama campaign line. that's what he's saying, i understand that things aren't where they're supposed to be. it suggests it might be in the sense that he's saying, acknowledging the problem, saying we have a long way to go but here's my plan and what i can do. in the obama campaign, people think that's what wins for them. that's what they focused on in the president's speech at the convention, here's a credible plan if you put me back in for four more years. romney's speech didn't have a lot of specifics about what he was going to do. maybe that is what voters care about. >> romney's advertise is during the olympics when a lot of people were tuning in was about what's wrong with america. what was on observe -- obama's? we have a choice to make, we can do better. the obama campaign was deermedly trying to be on the optimistic side when most of the people he watching the olympics were what? cheering for america. they tried to follow the psychic trend lines while the romney campaign was saying things are terr
